9Let phis children be fatherless,

And his wife a widow.

10Let his children qbe continually vagabonds, and rbeg:

Let them seek stheir bread also out of their desolate places.

11Let the extortioner tcatch all that he hath;

And ulet the strangers spoil his labour.

12Let there be none to wextend mercy unto him:

Neither let there be xany to favour his fatherless children.

13Let yhis posterity be cut off;

And in the generation following let ztheir name be blotted out.

14Let athe iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the Lord;

And let not the sin of his mother bbe blotted out.

15Let them be before the Lord continually,

cThat he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

16Because that he remembered not to shew mercy,

But persecuted dthe poor and needy man,

That he might even slay the ebroken in heart.

17fAs he loved cursing, so let it come unto him:

As he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.

18As ghe clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment,

So let it hcome †into his bowels like water,

And like oil into his bones.

19Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him,

And for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

20Let this be the reward of imine adversaries from the Lord,

And of them that speak evil against my soul.
